Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill secured a second term in the Senate, defeating Republican challenger Todd Akin in a hard-fought contest that gained national attention over controversial remarks about rape and pregnancy.

Todd Akin cost us a very much needed seat in the Senate. He should have dropped out - regardless of the fact that I think his remarks received way too much liberal media spin. He should have known - but didn’t care enough for this country to let someone else run.

Todd Akin probably cost us the whole election. He should have kept his damned mouth shut. He allowed Obama and the Dems to give a face to the “war on women” meme that they were trying to push in this election. Curses on him for being so stupid.

(It was all for nothing.)

It was the GOPe that should be catching your HELL for this loss. THey are the fu_kers that did the ciruclar firing squad on him in front of God and the damn media because he is too conservative! The GOPe does NOT want the likes of us!

Novice candidates unable to keep the stupidity in their closets have cost the GOP control of the Senate over the past two election cycles. People can moan about Akin not getting support or whatever, but what he said was ridiculously stupid and his decision to not bow out immediately has done nothing but give us six more years of Claire McCaskill. Good job Todd!

You are as delusional as Todd Akin and his campaign manager wife.

I am not at all surprised the likes of you and other Akinites are attacking rather than accepting Todd Akin should've heeded calls to resign from folks across all the GOP, Tea Party and conservative spectrum.
